Optus opposed privacy law changes
Australian telco Optus have repeatedly opposed proposed changes to the federal Privacy Act, claiming that implementing a system to give consumers the right to request the removal and deletion of their personal data would face "significant hurdles".On a more positive note for the Australian market, Sydney-based gaming marketing and gametech provider Livewire has raised AUD$4.7mIn the company's submissions to the review of the Privacy Act in 2020, it argued that allowing customers the right to erase their personal data would involve significant "technical hurdles", while executives also argued at the time that allowing consumers to take direct legal actions over privacy breaches could leave to "frivolous" claims.
